The Estimated price for the European market is between 350€ and 450€.

The advanced model bears the mark GT-I8750, codename Odyssey. It will have 4.8-inche Super AMOLED display with HD resolution, a back camera of 8 Mpix and a front with 2Mpix. It will come in 2 versions, one with 16GB and one with 32GB internal storage; both will be expandable by microSD memory cards like pretty much every smartphone today.

Samsung-Odyssey-and-Marco

The devices are expected to appear on the market in last quarter of 2012, but no official date has been announced. Marco will be launched as a mid-range products and Odyssey as a high-end. WP8 devices are supposed to give the Nokia Lumia series of devices a decent rival, both in price and performance.
